Planescape Torment is fantastic in many ways, and Baldur's Gate is good too, but I just don't care for all the D&D lore and all the background you have to read up about. It's just dull dull dull. I wish western RPGs created worlds as interesting and original as JRPGs, or JRPGs had gameplay as good as western ones.

Glad to see Bioware taking new directions in recent years with Mass Effect and Jade Empire, both of which I found far more enjoyable than the usual D&D crap, but both suffered from tipping the balance away from RPG and towards action a little too much I thought.
